"I can't run... can't move my legs; they simply won't respond. How can such a demon appear inside the Imperial City? Where are the officials? The soldiers? What about our Dynasty's Holy Fire Guard?"
"Relying on officials and soldiers, relying on the Holy Fire Guard, might not be as good as relying on your own two legs!"
"That's... such a huge demon."

When the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable, vast as a mountain, entered the view of the Great Yan commoners, it undoubtedly evoked an unprecedented tide of fear within them.
Had they ever witnessed such a scene?
Those who were able to run showed great mental fortitude, yet some commoners with weaker psyches had already collapsed, sitting paralyzed on the ground, unable to move. They could only gaze with a look of utter despair and helplessness at the colossal demons and devils in the distance.
Some with extremely poor mental strength simply rolled their eyes back and fainted from fear.
